Welcome back!
Last time: Telesto had *~the ears~*, instantly drawing favouritism from all the land me. Tumnal and Sirius got old and absolutely rocked the greyness. Many other birthdays were had, the kids finally got into private school and slowly trickled off into college.
Now comes the actual college part. I must warn you, the next update will probably take a while to grace my blog as in playing the kids through college, I realised how much I hate it.
Who is this?, you may ask.
This here is Opaline (
dark_moon689). She's proof that I did attempt to dormifying some pixel trade sims. By some I mean one. By one, I mean only her. I got bored with the process and figured that my sims could meet pixel trader's throughout college on the community lots/via the internet anyway so what did it matter?
But here's the proof I did attempt it :D
Newly made over Thalassa makes a point of getting acquainted with the dorm's dart board.
Meanwhile, Opaline's clinging on to her 15 minutes seconds of fame.
Unfortunately, Thal kind of sucks, much to Calli's amusement.
Leda's very committed to getting fit to balance her love affair with food.
Telesto's already got himself looking business-y. I'd take an opportunity here to begin subtle persuasion for Telesto as heir but I think it's time that I admit it: I've pretty much hand picked him for the purpose at this point in time... actually, I think that was probably obvious the second he hit toddlerhood.
Calli's working on making friends that she can bribe to do her assignments later on.
And I think Thal's attracted some... attention.
Telesto: What... what is this? Did I say you could sit here?
Opaline: Excuse me?!
Telesto: My apologies, I didn't realise you were a *~lady~*
Thal performs an inspirational performance of the chicken dance.
A girl after my own heart! <3
And then Gadwin chucked a psych and I lost about 20 photos. Jerk.
So here's what happened in dot point:
- Thaddeus (
bondchick_nett) became a possible love interest of Thal's, was invited around and promptly rejected.
- Calli picked up her sister's slack and was promptly drooling over the puppy-like Thaddeus.
- Thal finds a serious love interest in Ivan (
silenzii)
- Leda and Tel went out on the town in an attempt at 'sibling bonding' as they really had no interaction during their younger years and almost hate each other at this point.
- Leda made an attempt to pick up both Heinrich (
voleste) and Archie (
anits_xo) and failed. Miserably.
- Tel's interest... among other things... was peaked by the gorgeous Marina (
dorkasaur_sims) and they had a lovely dinner date.
That was about all that got accidently cut :D
I'm not sure if I should be... mad at Leda for being a jerk or disappointed at Tel because he couldn't suck it up and be a man about it.
Meanwhile, Calli and Thal have a vaguely disappointing dinner date back at the dorm.
I wish I had an exorcist on speed dial O_O
Thal decides to have some fun whilst Tel exercises.
Thal: Now you see me!
Thal: You want me to do what?
Maybe she's not as into Ivan as I thought?
Thal goes in for the first first kiss of the generation and it all looks to be going well...
But Ivan politely rejects her... Jerk.
Thal: ... the hell?
Yeah, I'm not sure either...
Random dormie: Why isn't he paying attention to me?
I don't know, maybe he's busy or something?
Mixed signals, Ivan?
I don't know if Thal's going to get anywhere with this guy.
Marina comes a calling and they exchange a weird air kiss.
However, Marina ups the ante and Tel get's a litttttle too excited.
Then for some reason Marina randomly disappears, nowhere to be found, so Tel entertains himself by beating his sister...
A good five hours later, I discover that Marina was just hiding out in Opaline's room. Awkward.
Is it just me or does Ivan look like his evil plans are coming to fruition?
Nevertheless, ladies and gentlemen, we have lift off!
Slightly fuzzy cutscene picture is fuzzy aside... :B :B :B
Whaaaa? O_O Opaline? Sweetie? Honey? Who are you beating to a pulp/being beaten to a pulp by?
Leda? Why am I not surprised?
Holy mother of... Remind me never to get Leda angry O_O
Leda wins... No real surprise.
Telesto makes an attempt to get his groove on.
Keep working on it, Tel.
I don't know what Marina's whispering into Tel's ears, but if it made him pull that face, my interest is piqued.
After neatly sweeping these into piles, Thal gets to making a cute mess :B
Thal: Fly my pretties!
Calli walks innocently down the hallway, leaving trails of stink in her wake.
Calli: Heeeeeeyy macarena!
Leda: Would you shut up?! I'm trying to *~seduce~*
Whoa, Marmalade (
cindrasims)! She's just invited you around, you don't need to beat her!
Marmalade: Oh, hi Leda!
... Better.
Marmalade: Oh, hi Leda!
... Much better.
-insertsomethingwittyhere-
Whoaaa, Leda! O_O
Telesto: Snow, glorious snow! *serenity*
Ivan seems to have finally made a decision on where he stands with Thal. She promptly fell in love and rolled the want to get engaged to him, which surprised me because I forgot to mention that Thal rolled romance, but after a few seconds of delay she rolled a fear of getting engaged so it all evened out in the end.
Thal: *whistles innocently*
Oh, come on, we know what's going on here Thal, no innocence about it.
After a few bed glitches, they got there in the end.
I figured Calli was probably feeling a little unloved with all the frivolity going on around here.
And then Gawdin chucked a mini pysch but rest assured, nothing much exciting happened.
Tel: Why are you such a jerk?!
Streaker: Telesto, hi! :D :D :D
Probably not the best time, naked girl.
Tel: WAAAAAAA, LEDA'S SUCH A JEEEEERRRRKKK.
Here bub, have a cup of concrete.
Calli gives her arms/hands/fingers a work out, killing some time with a video game.
To be honest, there was no real reason I took this photo. I just think he's pretty.
So whilst her three siblings are completing degree in Economy, Thal's getting artsy.
Thal: HI IVAN!!!!!!
That's a lot of enthusiasm O_O
Townie:
Well one of us is gonna have to change SYNCHRONISED SNOW APPRECIATION! <3
Enthusiasm really seems to run in the family!
Telesto: Marina, I have something to ask you...
Marina: I hope he kisses me again...
Telesto: Will you be mine?
Marina: This goes here, yeah?
Telesto: *grins adoringly*
Marina: Does this make my hand look fat?
Spouse acquired!
Telesto: Now we will make sweet sweet babies
She reminds me of a guinea pig :B
Marina: I'm thinking 10
Telesto: 10 what?
Marina: Kids, silly!
Telesto: Awwww hell no!
Tune in next time for the second half of college and a potential mental break down on my behalf :D
